Peter Obi visits Atiku in Abuja
In a calculated manoeuvre that may portend a political realignment prior to the general election of 2027, former Vice President Atiku Abubakar hosted Peter Obi, the presidential candidate of the Labour Party (LP) in the 2023 elections, at his Abuja home on Monday afternoon.
In the same elections, Atiku—who was running for the People's Democratic Party (PDP), the main opposition party—announced the meeting on his verified X profile, which was once Twitter.
Asiwaju Bola Tinubu, the candidate of the ruling All Progressives Congress (APC), did, however, win the presidential election.
Atiku gave no specifics on the encounter, just describing it as an honour and a privilege for him on Monday.
The former vice president wrote: “It was my honour and privilege to host @PeterObi today. -AA.”
